Goes So Slow-Even As We Speak

I remember you asleep in your room on a makeshift bed And your clothes were thrown Across the floor And hanging on the door was your favourite dress And I tossed and I turned and I get no rest And I remember something I thought I forgot Feeling withdrawn and a little bit lost In the middle of the day when we woke up We would sit and watch the weeds Growing through the broken glass While out on the street the cars go by so fast It goes so slow That nothing here can hold you down Your surrounds just bring you down My sense of touch Words could never mean that much My heart beats like a cheap watch Running fast and running slow Speeding through the dark While out on the street the cars go by so fast It goes so slow That nothing here can hold you down Your surrounds just bring you down It goes so slow That nothing here can hold you down Nothing here can hold you down Your surrounds just bring you down It goes so slow Just to bring you down It goes so slow Just to bring you down It goes so slow Just to bring you down
